My Christmas List

I want a hell of a lot of things BUT i'm only asking for a some non-expensive things this year so i could get a lot more presents.  We have already set up our tree and there are several presents there already, but none are mine -____-.  ANYWAY here is a list of the things i asked Santa for:

Lip stain: 
Feather Earrings: 
Printed Tights: 
Off the shoulder tee: 
Platforms: 
THAT IS ALL! i also want a contract for my phone but i think that "santa" is already getting me that so i didnt include that in there.

most humiliating moment

I have many, and i mean MANY, embarrassing moments.  Falling in front and spraining my ankle, saying something stupid in front of someone, falling down the stairs, getting teased about something.  There has been a ton and i do have one that stands out in my mind, but it is a bit too personal to post on here so i'll just tell you guys the next best thing.
When i was in kindergarten, I was still living in the Philippines.  It was the end of the school day, and I REALLY needed to go to the bathroom and lets just say it wasn't to go pee. ANYWAY, i was holding it in for the longest time until finally i couldn't hold it in any longer.  I pooped my pants. I turned completely red as i sat in my seat waiting for class to be dismissed.  Everyday at the end of the day the whole class was supposed to line up by the door and wait to get picked up.  Everyone stood up but me and my classmates passed by asking what was wrong and why i wasnt lining up. I all told them i was tired and that I didnt feel like standing up. Eventually my teacher came up to me and asked and  I just started crying until my nanny came to pick me up.

SO FREAKING EMBARRASSING!!!!

Atticus Finch

Atticus Finch is my literary hero. why? well in to To Kill A Mockingbird, Atticus is a lawyer for a black man who is accused for the crime of rape that he did not commit.  In wold full of racism and racial discrimination, defending a seemingly guilty black man is quite risky and will definitely get you out casted by everybody.  Knowing all this, he takes the job anyway.  He risks his life to save someone else, someone that was seen as a low life and was unworthy but in Atticus' eyes everyone deserved a fair chance in life.  

Atticus is my hero because he inspires me to be good, he inspires to me to do things just because it is the right thing to do and not because i would gain anything from it, besides morals of course.  He is a very good role model, for not only children and teen, but adults as well.  

good morning

When i wake up in the morning and open my front door i see the garbage bin, the dirt road, my stray dog and two stray cats, my three cars, grass. I would like to move the garbage bin but it is already located in the most convenient place possible. So, i would just paint it pretty colors and spray perfume on it so that it is not so repelling to look at and smell.  I would give my stray dog (Cody) a bath and tons of meat to eat because he looks hungry all the time.  We have two stray cats and one that we own.  The one we own is named lucky, she's black and she's awesome but very picky. she's like a spoiled princess.  One of our other cats is walnut. she is ADORABLE! she's also very very friendly.  The last one we haven't named but she's shyer and she won't really come near us. that's something i would change. i would have that last cat be more friendly and tamed. i would have all the clouds accumulated in the sky with different shapes each. I would have pretty birds fly around chirping beautiful songs.

My practical paradise

Its nearing sunset and i'm on a beach with nice soft sand for miles around.  The suns strong rays are diluted by the soft clouds, moving lazily across the sky.  My friends will be here soon but i'm content just laying on my towel enjoying the cool gentle breeze. I turn my head to see a little crab running across the beach, charging at the water. It seems that sparkling diamonds were spilled into the ocean, the colorful fish adding to its beauty. Suddenly, i feel drops of water gently landing on my face, i marvel at the sky as it rains while the suns still out making the raindrops look like crystals falling and breaking as it hits the sand. I close my eyes and let the light rain wash away my stress and worries away, at this moment i don't have to please anyone, i don't have any responsibilities.It was just me.
All too soon, I hear engines running from behind me and car doors opening and slamming shut.  I turn to meet all my friends, each one has an excited smile on their faces and in their hands there are different kinds of snacks and drinks.  Someone brought a stereo and we start to play some upbeat music and enjoy each others company. As the sun sinks in the horizon, we have gathered enough firewood for a decent sized bonfire.  Almost immediately the night sky glistens with stars, the music as if on cue changes into something mellow and everyone sits around the bonfire feeling relaxed and just happy. happy to be around friends, happy to have no worries, happy with everything right at this moment.

that would be my PRACTICAL utopia. if we could write a blog about my utopia period, it would go on to a whole other level.

thanksgiving..already???

sheesh time is going by so fast >< the next thing i know i'll be 70 years old walking around with a cane. GAH, its like everythings going by too quickly and i feel that college is closing in on me. hard. and i don't like it. i don't like the idea of leaving everybody here and going off on my own to some big scary college and living by myself =/.  I feel like i'm growing up too fast and theres all these responsibilities that i have to face and talk about getting a job and which college i'm going to and blah blah blah. it sucks, its too much.  I just wanna take a pause and enjoy things for awhile instead of stressing out about everything.  I'm looking forward to the holidays and all (like thanksgiving and christmas) but then its just another indication of how soon it'll be a new year, soon i'll be a new age, soon everyone will have to say goodbye. =[

Novel

If I were to recommend a novel to my "UNC classmate" I would definitely recommend the Hunger Games.  Its a young-adult science fiction novel and it is definitely worth reading.  Its filled with adventure and unbelievable circumstances that will have you hanging off every page.

The book is about a girl named Katniss who lives in a corrupt world.  There were 13 districts that is mentioned and she lives on district 12, the poorest of them all.  District 13 was actually destroyed after it tried to rebel against the government.  In result of that rebellion, every year an event called the hunger games are held.  Every district is poor except for the capitol.  The hunger games is a way for teens to get some money and food into their district.  Each district then sends in two teens, one boy and one girl to participate in the hunger games which is held in a man-made arena.  Whoever wins the hunger games will win unimaginable riches and will never have to worry about being hungry ever again.  One catch though, you must kill all the other players, including your own district member.

DOESNT THAT SOUNDS AWESOME?!!! i totally am inlove with it and there are three books, i have read the second one and hopefully i get to read the third one soon. It's already out and i'm trying to borrow it from someone but i'm really looking forward to it.

I want to die....

on a cloud because clouds are fluffy like cotton candy and i would like to die on cotton candy-like clouds.  It would be most comfortable and awesome.  I would then like my body to be buried somewhere extremely cold like Antartica because then i wouldn't deteriorate and i would just stay frozen forever.  I don't like the idea of decomposing or being burned to ashes so freezing is the next best thing.

If the dying on a Cloud thing doesn't work out then i'd like to die somewhere near my loved ones.  The last thing i wanna see, hear, and talk to would be them and then i'd die happy.  I'd want to die peacefully so it would probably just be because of old age with my one true love <3.


But if i don't find my one true love then i'd like to die young please.  Doing something cool like flying with no wings and i'd like it to be instant and not painful.  I would also like to die before anyone i loved died because i dont wanna go through the whole depression thing (kinda selfish i know) but yeah.

110

If i had a 400 autobiography, what would it say on page 110? thats tough. I'm only seventeen so not much has happened in my life yet but i'll give it a shot anyway:

When i was ten years old I had to move to Saipan with my dad and leave my mom and all my friends behind in the philippines.   I was really scared because i was extremely shy around people and i was going to a whole new school with white people which scared the beejeezus out of me O.O.  Since school in the Philippines ends in march i had a four month summer vacation which was pretty sweet.  The first two months i spent in PI and I had my birthday party there. The last two months i went to the states with my dad and the rest of the family and i think we went to Disney land that year.  We arrived in Saipan at midnight the day of school and we still had to go to school that day.  We were late (and that hasn't changed till now)  and i remember my teacher mrs. rahman opening the door and my dad talking to her about my being new and all that and i looked in the classroom and i saw in the back this white girl who was flipping her hair around and immediately i thought she was the mean girl or something. little did i know that she and i would become inseparable for the next seven years.  I also remember telling everybody that i would only be living in saipan for a year and that i would return back to the philippines the next year.  that never came true but i wanted it so badly to be true because i knew that if i stayed, i would get attached and not want to leave anymore, which is pretty much what has happened.

okay and yeah i think thats what it would say on that page which is most likely not very accurate at all but oh well =]

champions

So for the past seven years, count em SEVEN. almost as long as i've been living on this godforsaken island. GCA has won every single championship.  But this year, SIS has taken over and we totally owned their faces.  It was a close game no doubt and GCA is definitely kick-ass in volleyball but this year was OUR year and we won fair and square.  I'm most especially happy for josh, emma, and jessica because this year is their last year of volleyball and they get to go out with a bang.  Now i'm really looking forward for MISO girls because the girls will have more of a chance to play and this time hopefully we'll be number one during the season AND take first place unlike last year.  Which always happens to us for some reason ><  but this year we'll have a lot of girls joining and there might even be try-outs and all that so it should be really fun!

I'M EXCITEDDD!!!

Dead People

I would bring back Elvis Presley to life because he is awesome pants.  I would love to ask him questions about

his life and how he actually died and all that.  I would then ask him to teach me how to play guitar, take a picture

with him and maybe even a video cuz that would get like a billion with a B, views on youtube. O.O  Then i'd ask

him to record a duet with me on one of those big ass record thingies.  that would be EPICCCCCC!!!  I'd

probably ask him for some singing lessons too and i'd ask him about things that no one else knows so that i could

write a book about him and i'd get a ton of money for it.  i'll be a millionaire and everyone will finally know how

elvis died and that he is in fact not living underground eating a sandwhich.  =D

boring stuff

blogging is getting so boring ><

i mean at first i was excited about it, and all that but now its just a burden.  I can never think of anything to write about.  I'm the kind of person that when i start something i tend to forget about it later on or i just don't finish it.  The only reason i'm still blogging is because this counts for a grade.  And really right now i'm just trying to fill up space by typing all this stuff up and i'm not really gonna go anywhere with this so...don't expect a climax and a poignant (sad) ending.  Ok well since i'm supposed to have at least 500 words i'm just gonna list things that i like and hate.
1. I love dressing up for any occasion, whether its prom or halloween.
2. I hate it when people over exaggerate things.
3. I love surprises (good ones)
4. I hate pointless movies
5. I love chocolate chip cookies
6. I hate school work
7. I love music
8. I hate racism
9. I love haters
10. I hate cheese burgers
11. I love lasagna
and yeah OK i'm gonna stop it right there. cuz eleven is a cool number :P

I less than three halloween

 Halloween is one of my most favorite holidays. 

something about scary, mysterious things always caught my interest.  I love all the movies they play during Halloween and i especially love all the candy that i get FOR FREE!! also Halloween dances are awesome and haunted houses are kick-ass.  Choosing a costume and dressing up is probably the best part.  I could tell you all the characters i dressed up as starting from fourth grade.

4th grade: spider queen O.O it was my first Halloween on Saipan and i even had one of those evil queen collar things.

5th grade: pirate! i had boots and a matching bandanna, i wore a pirate dress and my dad kept taking pictures cuz i looked so "grown up"

6th grade: dead cheerleader.  it was pretty cool cuz i got to prance around my extremely uptight history teacher with a bare stomach. 

7th grade: cowgirl. me and zoe both were cowgirls that year, pretty epic. i didnt order this one online or anything i just wore a skirt and i borrowed a bandana shirt with boots and a cowboy hat. 

8th grade: Devil ;) zoe was my matching angel. i wore a long red dress and devil horns with dark red lipstick.

9th grade: Jasmine.  and hunter thorpe was my aladin. That year i went to my first highschool dance and it was REALLY fun. i had my costume tailor-made.

10th grade: rag doll. the costume actually came with a sort of wig but it did not fit me well so i just drew on my face so i looked like somewhat of a doll but i ended up looking more of a french maid. 

11th grade (this year!): i'm thinking of being a sailor =] with a little sailor hat and everything and i'm not sure if my schools having a halloween dance but other schools might so that should be interesting.

and thats it so far! I hope everyone has a good halloween and maybe you can even get ideas for a halloween costume from this blog. anddddd...yeah thats it. 

love is a syncing feeling chap 2

Naomi's P.O.V:
When i saw the girl leaning up against the wall i knew she was hurt.  I went over to her as fast as I could sensing that she was new because i haven't seen her before and i felt bad for she must've been seriously scared.  Once i got her to the nurses office i looked at her closely.  She had long brown hair that hung just below her chest, her big brown eyes were scrunched up in pain,and she was a lot taller than i was. but then again, i'm a pretty short person.  When we finally introduced ourselves we headed back to class just as it was let out and one of the cutest guys in school walks up to us and trailing behind him was Aiden Johnson. The guy I've had a crush on for centuries.  He was about 5'11 with short brown hair and piercing green eyes.  Once the other cute dude approached Carson, i stared at Aiden and when he looked at me i blushed fiercely and tried to hide behind Carson.
"I'm Liam" the cute guy said.
"Nice to meet you" Carson replied.
"Umm Carson, i hate to interrupt but we should get going to our next class" i said, we actually didn't need to, we had plenty of time but i wanted to escape Aiden's stares.
"oh okay, umm i guess i'll see you around" Carson told Liam and with that i grabbed her had and rushed off in the other direction.
"Woah, slow down Naomi whats the hurry?" Carson asked a confused look on her face.
"Okay Okay, that guy standing behind Liam, that was Aiden Johnson, i've had a crush on him since forever ago and he doesnt know i exist." I said really fast, getting it all off my chest.
"Why don't you talk to him then?" she asked.
I laughed at her and continued walking off to the next class shaking my head.  talk to him?? haha yeah right.  Both he and his girlfriend would laugh at me and i am not putting myself through that kind of humiliation.
no way. As i approached our next class i saw Aiden standing by the door talking to his girlfriend, but he had an angry look on his face that mirrored hers.
hmm, maybe there is hope.

love is a syncing feeling

Carson's POV:
I opened my eyes, my head was throbbing. I slowly tried to get up as pain shot up from my twisted ankle, i felt two arms wrap around me, helping me to my feet.
"what the hell??" i heard a shrill voice yell. i tried to focus my blurry vision and discovered whose voice it belonged to.  I didn't know her, well i didn't know anyone cause i just moved here.  She glared at me, her face red as a lobster, her hair was slightly messed up and i slowly realized what had just happened.
It all started this morning, My family had just literally flown in in the middle of the night.  My dad still insisted we go to school and so obviously i was late.  I picked up the clothes i wore during the flight and flew down the stairs and rode my bike to school.  My brother had left without me as a prank and i mentally noted to kick his ass later.  The bell rang right as i was chaining up my bike, my backpack was open and all my books fell out.  I gathered it all up and started running full speed towards the building when KA-BLAM i hit something. hard. and now here i am staring face to face with a girl that, i assumed, i ran into.
"are you alright?" a husky voice behind me asked.
"Um yeah, i think i hurt my ankle though" i replied
I turned to look at the guy and almost fell back down.  he was gorgeous with a capital G. and i was a complete mess.  I looked down trying to hide my face and slowly limped away.
"hey hold on let me help you to the nurse" he offered.
"Uh HELLO?? this is all her fault! why are you helping her?!" the shrill voiced girl yelled again.
there was a crowd forming and i was starting to feel sick so i started to limp away again but this time faster.
Before he could stop me again, i made it to the doorway and blended in with the crowd.  I didnt know where the nurses office was and i couldnt take the pain anymore, i walked over to the nearest lockers and leaned on the wall tears threatening to spill from my eyes.
"Hey are you okay?" a female voice asked.
I looked up to see a girl about half my size with a concerned look on her face.  I shook my head, not being able to speak and she wrapped her arm around me and walked me over to the nurse.  As the nurse got some ice for my ankle i took a good look at the girl that helped me out.  She was short as i've mentioned already, she was really pretty with thick black hair and a really nice tan.
"I'm Carson" i said softly.
"Naomi" she smiled reaching out hand out.
"Thanks for helping me" i said as i shook her hand.
After awhile of small talk i felt good enough to walk to class.  I looked at myself in the mirror available in the nurses office and grimaced at the sight.  My hair was all tangled, my eyes were red from sleep deprivation and my clothes were wrinkled.  I combed my hair out the best i could and splashed some cold water on my face from the sink. Naomi and i proceeded to our first class just as the bell rings for the class to be let out.
"great, its my first day and ive already played hooky" I muttered.
Naomi laughed "Well it looks like your luck is turning, Mr gorgeous over there is heading our way"
I looked over to see the guy that helped me this morning walking in my direction with a big smile on his face.
"Hey are you alright? you looked really hurt earlier" he asked
It took all my strength not to stare at those perfect lips.
"Uhh, ye..yeah i'm..i'm good i'm ..good" i stuttered like an idiot
He chuckled "I'm Liam"

Nap time for highschoolers

I think that high school students deserve an hour of nap time. And if you don't want to call it that we can just call is a "free period" everyone can bring a sleeping bad and some pillows and have a big slumber party for an hour. except we actually go to sleep. Here are some reasons on why:

1. we need more sleep because we're going through puberty.
2. teachers give us a bucket load of homework which uses up brainpower
3. we walk from class to class with about 15 pounds of stuff on us since we cant leave them  near our lockers anymore and our lockers are too small to fit ANYTHING in anyway.
4. we have to stay alert for two hours at a time trying to absorb information teachers are throwing at us.
5. P.E. is mandatory and after they make us run around and stand under the burning sun and we're expected to still be alert and energetic in the next class after
6. we're forced to stay awake through two hour lectures with the light turned off while a power point full of boringness is displayed in the front of the room. 
7. we tend to eat a lot more and we need time to just relax and digest all that food.
8. we'll actually go to sleep unlike those kindergarteners who just lay down there until the teacher turns the light back on again. 
9. because i want a chance to use my sleeping mask during school.
10. and lastly because we want one.

THERE YOU GO!  i hope someone will actually read this and agree with me; possibly start a petition or something like that.  oh and i also want a gym and ice cream presented to me in the morning before classes.

THE END.

the reason why you shouldn't have sexual relations with sheep.

OK so in Mr. Tessen's class we had to read a Jared Diamond excerpt.  Diamond is a great writer, immensely admired by Mr. Tessen and all his work is very meaningful and somewhat difficult to read.  It's college level reading and most would think: "oh thats boring".  Well if you're in Mr. Tessen's, theres always something that captures your attention.  Today in particular was a certain reading about deadly diseases that humans get or have gotten.  The story starts out with a man and his wife at a doctors office; the man is sick with some sort of illness and the source is unidentified.  The doctor is tired from a long week's work and the wife and husband can barely speak English.  After awhile the doctor gets a bit agitated and blurts out if the man has had any sex at all besides with his wife.  The man turns beet red, hides himself under the covers and mumbles something out loud.  The wife then yells in rage, knocks him out cold with a vase and storms out of the office.  AFter reviving the man back into consciousness he tries to figure out what his answer was that made his wife angry.  It turns out that the man has had repeated sexual intercourse with sheep.

uhhh WHAT?? it was so gross! i mean if i were the wife i would be mad, yes, but i would be 99.99% disturbed.  i mean EW, sheep? really? i expected another woman, maybe even another man but a different animal species. thats just wrong.

I mean honestly what would bring on that type of attraction? i mean yes we love to have pets because they're cute and good company but to have that kind of relationship with them....all i can say is that their babies will NOT be pretty. It'd have like white curly fur for hair and a friggen tail and its favorite vegetable would be grass.

ANYWAY, now the man has some sort of STD from it and he's sick in all kinds of ways.  I feel bad for that woman, what if she did it with him right after he did the sheep? and also, thats seriously demeaning.
i mean how would YOU feel if your biggest competition was livestock?

but i guess you cant really blame him.  sheep ARE pretty cute. and they can be cloned so you can have double the fun =]

my day today (9/8/10)

I woke up and stayed in bed for about 5 minutes after just laying there, too lazy to actually get up.  Finally had the strength to get off the bed and slowly trudged to my closet to pick clothes to wear.  I then went into the bathroom and splashed my face with cold water and put my contacts on.  I went downstairs and the smell of bacon permeated through the room.  I greeted my brothers and we had a conversation about something funny that i don't remember anymore (i have short term memory loss).  After brushing my teeth and hauling all my school stuff downstairs, i finally made it to the car and waited for my siblings to get in.  We then began our long journey down the rocky mountain slowing down numerous times for many different holes and puddles.  We were all rocking out to Zoe's mixed CD that she made for me.  Once we arrived at school, it was already 7:45 so we were a bit late and the mud field was as lovely as ever, i was lucky enough not to get any mud on me today.  Finally i arrived in Mr Lee's class and he went on about different eating techniques for pizza and why you draw the face first when drawing a person.  We then went into ancient world history and we started talking about sperm and how it lasts for three days and Richard said he was gonna have his babies all over the world. Dr Jenkins then gave us this thing that made the internet go faster which is BAMF.  Art class was up next and ms nancy looked at me funny cuz i smacked my booty at jia ying.  After art me and zoe became homeless and went to the bathroom discussing where we should eat and ended up in ms Doculan's class were the seniors and the sophomores joined us.  Raffy started to "beat me up" while i sat there not wanting to move out of his seat.  I then went and sat down on the front stairs with zoe talking about her love life which took about 1 second.  After that long conversation we went to chinese where we had a quiz about meat and fried rice.  We all walked back over to Mr Lee's class and after min joo cleaned up all the gum under the table and after mr lee told me he didn't want to be famous, i sat here writing this blog because apparently we're supposed to have 10-11 and i only have 7.

THE END.

my 3 day weekend.

I am so grateful that we had a 3 day weekend where i didn't have to worry much about homework or any other school stuff.  Friday i went to the movies, Saturday was a girls night with Zoe and Svahn, Sunday was a barbecue at my house and today is just a lazy day.

Friday i went to the movies and got a discount on the tickets because my friend works there and the boss wasn't there on that day =D
Saturday i went to eat dinner with the girls at 360 and after we all went to eat ice cream (zoe and i shared because i ran out of money) we got moose tracks.  Svahn got some boison berry type thing (yuck) and after we all went over to zoe's house to watch some Laguna beach and make fun of all the rich people.  One guy was really ugly but everyone thought he was hot, which was beyond me.
and then svahn left and it was just me and zoe and we ate some vinegar chips and i started ranting about how spoiled Laguna beach people are.
Sunday me, emily and michael all started washing all the chairs and tables for the barbecue that night.  It was all disgusting and there were two geckos hiding underneath the tables. Once people started arriving we all started eating some spicy chicken wings and lots of chips which were delicious. :P
After that we all gathered around the TV and watched princess diaries which was pretty cool beans.
and now its monday, the last day of my long weekend, it felt like it went by pretty fast.  Now i'm just finishing up homework and being really lazy, already looking forward to next weekend.  At least we only have four days of school this week and then ANOTHER WEEKEND. thank goodness.

Slang 101

A lot of kids today communicate in a way that most adults do not understand.  They use abbreviations and distort certain words to make up a new meaning for it.  Here i shall teach you Slang 101. this is basically a guide to what kids are saying nowadays so that you are able to understand or "keep up" if you will.

geeked up: dressed up usually in colorful clothing

aight: an agreement

thats tight, mad, beast, sick, ill: a praise of a sort

thats whack: that is not right

twisted: drugged (high)

lets spot: a gathering in a spot or certain are area

wicked: something that appeals to people but is unusual

yo: hello

props: respect/recognition

a double: twenty dollars

whats up?:  this is asking what you are doing at the moment

dawg: a name that the male species usually call each other

bro: "brother" but usually they are not related.

so far those are the most commonly used of all the slang words and there will be updates soon.
thank you for reading this blog

Pack Rat

I really hate throwing anything away unless i feel completely cluttered.  I get attached to everything so when i give stuff away its usually forced and i'm not very willing. I'm a bit of a pack rat. When I was little I had one Barbie doll that i thought was the prettiest Barbie i ever saw. She had flaming red hair and the cutest face with the best outfits.  I played with her everyday and she was the main character in all the stories i made up.  One day i came home from school and I couldn't find her anywhere. I looked in  all the shelves in my closet, above my closet, under the bed, in my moms room and she was gone.  I never actually figured out where she went but i think that my mom gave her away along with all my other toys and old clothes.  I was really upset about it and i got mad at my mom for giving her away but eventually i got over it.  I figured that some other less fortunate kid will have her and be extremely grateful.  Now i when i see children who have barely anything i compare that to what i have so whenever I go back to the Philippines i try to give away as much as i can to those who need it and this helps them AND me get over getting too attached to unimportant things.  When I went to Peru with some of my classmates we visited kids who were all HIV positive and we gave them donations from fundraising all year, we also gave them clothes and some toys that we did not need anymore. Today i still have a hard time giving or throwing things away because in a sense i feel attached or i feel that they will become important or useful to me in the future.  But going to Peru or seeing homeless children in the Philippines I think of how much I have and how much i can give them and help them in that way.

why Mr Lee is the best teacher EVER!

Mr. Lee, even his name is wonderful.  He teaches very well, and is a very

 reasonable man. He loves his students and his students love him. He has this 

exotic accent that makes you pay constant attention and you just can't turn away.

  He has wisdom in everything he says and he says them in very sophisticated

 ways.  He has such a loving nature and treats his students as if they were his 

own children.  He has this royal characteristic about him that disables him 

from sitting on the ground, he prefers swirly chairs. (the mark of power).  

His hair is gelled to perfection every morning and comes prepared to class 

with wise phrases to share with the class.  When a student is out of line 

(svahn) he handles it with poise and awesomeness and makes everyone 

laugh at that students expense.  its crazy how awesome he is, his blogs

are the best because you can really get a lot of goodness out of them.

If you want to be a good teacher my advice to you:

Be Mr. Lee. =D

Dear Shane

High school is a very tough place full of self-conscious teenagers and embarrassing moments. Being a teen myself, I know that there are many questions high schoolers have about growing up, dating, body image and more. So this year, I am going to have my own column called "Dear Shane" and basically the main purpose is to give advice to students that need it while remaining completely anonymous. (anonymous meaning no one will know you asked that question).   I will then pick two questions to answer and those two will be posted up in the school newspaper; this can also help other students that may have the same questions.  Please don't be afraid to ask me anything, and know that you do not have to sign your name on anything you send me, and if you accidentally do, I won't reveal your identity to anybody unless you specifically tell me to. Your questions can include things about: mean girls or bullies in general, balancing school and your social life, peer pressure and a lot more.

my email is:  beachcrazed@hotmail.com

Note:
Hey guys, I know you all love me and want my attention, and i love you too but please don't send any emails or questions that aren't exactly serious, or have nothing to do with this column. thanks :)

Why Boys Are Stupid

I think all girls will agree with me when i say that boys are pretty stupid, ESPECIALLY when it comes to girls and dating.  You can be THE nicest man in the world and still have no clue on what to do to make a girl happy. Playing hard to get: ok thats cool, it makes us want you more but after awhile it gets pretty old and it gets boring cause' by then everybody knows you like her so JUST GO OUT WITH HER. it was ok in middle school, but we're all older here, i think we should be able to handle a little bit of maturity.  When a girl texts you or tries to talk to you but you dont reply, your just making it awkward for everybody so nut up and talk to the woman, she's not gonna stab you in the face. (unless your really asking for it)  TALKING IS KEY, if you dont like her, tell her. if you do like her, TELL HER so she's not sitting around wondering what the elephants is going on.   Girls like to be remembered, so dont try to act "cool" and pretend like you have no idea who she is, thats what you call being a douche bag and it is frowned upon in many countries.  If you make a promise, stick to it, your just gonna aggravate her more if you say you'll do something and the last minute you dont do it.  thats just dumb.
and i dont care if she's been with you for 2 years, dont be a pig.  dont start burpin in her face and leaving her behind.letting her carry all the heavy stuff, she's a human being and she deserves to be treated like one. and last but most important: be honest.  dont think that you can do something bad, lie, and get away with it.
we know all. 
so if you want a successful relationship, my advice to you...dont be a stupid boy.


PS.
this is just part one of why boys are stupid.  trust me there are a lot more reasons.

sinking in

     At the beginning of the year, walking in school, i still felt that i was a mere sophomore.  The word "Junior" had not sunk in yet.  I was fresh-minded right after summer, totally relaxed and excited for the new year.  The First three days weren't that bad; a couple of reading assignments and some writing were assigned and everyone pretty much breezed through it. A couple more days of school passed by and i still didn't feel like i was a junior in high school. not until today that is. After a hard-core work out for two hours of volleyball, i had to drive home and start on my homework.  I realized that i had left my book at school for AP english and i needed to write a precis on it.  I also had to finish reading and answering questions for Ancient World History, write this blog, study for chemistry, do some art when all i wanted to do was lay back and sleep like i did for two months straight during summer.  Today hit me like a load of bricks.
 I'm a Junior now. 
 I'll have more school work, more pressure, and will become busier and busier everyday.  I realize that I must adjust myself accordingly and i will have to sacrifice a lot of free time if I want to make it through this year.

If being a Junior is hard, then i cant wait to be a senior.

My Bucket List

There are countless of things i want to do before I die and i've always wanted to make a bucket list so here we go.
(this is in no particular order)

first thing, I have also wanted to visit a mental hospital, i just think it would be interesting to see what it's like inside and how all the people act. Second thing would be to work with Tim Burton or Johnny Depp, cuz that would be pretty freaking awesome being in a movie with them would be like my dream come true basically. Third thing is to earn like a billion dollars and take a couple million to buy food for kids in Africa, and of course spoil myself and my family. Fourth thing would be to take a picture with every person i meet through out my life time and make a huge project out of it. Fifth thing would be to visit every major city around the world to shop and go sightseeing for at least a week.  I  want to climb a pyramid, swim in the Nile, visit the Eiffel tower, bungee jump from the tallest building in the world, marry the hottest guy ever born on this planet. Go to all of my classmates hometowns to experience all the different cultures.  Write a book, create a song album with Akon, Usher, Taylor Swift, Nick Jonas, and so on.  Walk on a runway during a major fashion show, get my face up on a gigantic billboard.  Make one of the BIGGEST cookies EVER (possibly getting on the guiness book of world records).  Sing at a concert at a stadium with thousands of people, that would be really awesome but i'd probably be extremely nervous and barf...possibly. I want to meet Oprah and Ellen, I also want to meet the lady with the longest nails in the world.  I want to have dinner with the tallest man and party with Obama. Build THE coolest tree house in the history of cool tree houses, wear a mascot costume and crash at least 10 parties in one night.  Visit a real life castle, and sneak into an amusement park at night with a bunch of friends. Create a website that could possibly become as popular as perezhilton.com.  And the last and final thing i could think of at them moment that i want to do before i die is to go up to space and walk on the moon. 

The End
